data in standard formats. In EDI, information segments – strings of data elements;
is organized according to a specified format with each element separated by a

Healthcare & Health Insurance - Overview
1. The HIPAA transactions and code set standards are rules that
standardize the electronic exchange of health-related administrative
information, such as claims forms.
2. The rules are based on electronic data interchange (EDI) standards,

which allow for the exchange of information from computer-to-
computer without human involvement.
3. A "transaction" is an electronic business document. Under HIPAA, a

handful of standardized transactions will replace hundreds of
proprietary, non-standard transactions currently in use. For example,
the HCFA 1500 claims form/file will be replaced by the X12 837
claim/encounter transaction.
4. Each of the HIPAA standard transactions has a name, a number, and a

business or administrative use. Those of importance in a medical
practice are listed in the table below:
Name of transaction Number Business use
Claim/encounter X12 837 For submitting claim to health plan, insurer, or other payer
Eligibility inquiry and X12 270 and 271 For inquiring of a health plan the status of a patient.s
response eligibility for benefits and details regarding the types of
services covered, and for receiving information in response
from the health plan or payer.
Claim status inquiry and X12 276 and 277 For inquiring about and monitoring outstanding claims
response (where is the claim? Why haven't you paid us?) and for
receiving information in response from the health plan or
payer. Claims status codes are now standardized for all
payers.
Referrals and prior X12 278 For obtaining referrals and authorizations accurately and
authorizations quickly, and for receiving prior authorization responses from
the payer or utilization management organization (UMO)
used by a payer.
Health care payment and X12 835 For replacing paper EOB/EOPs and explaining all adjustment
remittance advice data from payers. Also, permits auto-posting of payments to
accounts receivable system.
Health claims attachments X12 275 For sending detailed clinical information in support of claims,
(proposed) in response to payment denials, and other similar uses.
Healthcare & Health Insurance -
Overview
The 837 Health Care Transaction Set –
• The standard format developed by ASC X12 for health care claims
submission through electronic data interchange is called as “837
Transaction Set”.
• A successful EDI transmission requires the health plan to have
strong working relationship with their trading partners. Prior to
each implementation, it is essential that each health plan and its
trading partners have a clear and common understanding on
the contents of the claim data to be submitted to claims
processing system.
• The claim submission to be in 837 format.

• The version of the format to be submitted should be 4010 or
5010.
• Claims should contain Provider and Member identifiers.
• Validate membership data submitted with claims.
The EDI 837 Inbound Process will convert the load of ANSI X12 Std
837 formatted claims to the Facets database.
The 837 process will –

• Read the file containing 837 formatted claims.
• Map the 837 fields to facets.
• Write claims to an intermediate work file
• Report on errors and run controls
• Read the intermediate work file
• Generate the claim numbers
• Generate facets claim acknowledgements.
The purpose of Companion Guide is to provide the information necessary to submit
claims/encounters electronically. The guide is to be used in conjunction with the
Implementation Guide (TR3). The information in CG describes specific requirements for
processing data within the payer‟s system. The companion guide supplements, but does
not contradict or replace any requirements in the IG. The implementation guide (a.k.a
TR3) is available for download on their web site at http://www.wpcedi.com/hipaa/.
Understanding Health Information Privacy
• The HIPAA Privacy Rule provides federal protections for personal
health information held by covered entities and gives patients an
array of rights with respect to that information.
• At the same time, the Privacy Rule is balanced so that it permits

the disclosure of personal health information needed for patient
care and other important purposes.
• The Security Rule specifies a series of administrative, physical,

and technical safeguards for covered entities to use to assure the
confidentiality, integrity, and availability of electronic protected
health information.
For Covered Entities
The Privacy and Security Rules apply only to covered entities. Individuals,
organizations, and agencies that meet the definition of a covered entity under
HIPAA must comply with the Rules' requirements to protect the privacy and
security of health information and must provide individuals with certain rights
with respect to their health information
